I've noticed more than a few times some sites that I link my Hubs to by bookmarking are showing up highly in the Google searches.As a bookmark is just a duplicate coming from a different URL is this something that will affect the rank of your Hubs URL or is this a good thing? Just a few sites I've noticed this from are Xomba,Gozoof,and Buckmark (which has been screwy as of late anyway and going on the fritz when trying to add new bookmarks so is really not part of this discussion anyway). I'm starting to think it would just be better to stick to article writing on Xomba for this purpose so that while similar in subject the article would stand alone and only have a good affect for my Hub on the searches.
'Spinning' an article to create a backlink is a common way to promote online work, from what I've seen.
And if the links are dofollow, then they are good for your hubs. Nofollow backlinks have no influence on google rankings.

Disappeared from Google searches...I turn to the wisdom of HB for some help, please. Yesterday my Hub on travel smoothie cups was ranked No2 on page one of google with a steady 20+ views a day. Nothing huge, but making me smile. Today, I have had 1 view and when I type in the term travel smoothie...

I just modified the two recipe hubs I had to include the new recipe capsules, hoping they would look like all the other recipes that pop up in results, and maybe I have to wait a little bit of time, but...It only seems to show your picture in the search results if you have the image right at the...

Boy, now I'm really confused. Our hub summaries (just under the title) are supposed to be what shows up as a description in Google searches, right? So I just launched a new hub. It's reading a 94 hubscore right now and is not an Editor's Choice (yet). Here is what my summary says:"When it...
